Irish band Sleep Thieves tweeted this brilliant request ahead of their gig at Castlepalooza

Let's hope they make it to Electric Picnic in one piece...

JOE will always bring you the best new Irish music and 'You want the Night' by Sleep Thieves is one of our favourite albums by an Irish act this year. The three-piece Dublin band have made a record that has a noir and dark but dreamlike feel to it. However, they almost had a nightmare over the weekend. It seems that Sorcha, Keith and Wayne needed some help getting to Castlepalooza in one-piece...

hey! anyone heading down to Castlepalooza in the morning?? we had to gig in Dublin tonight,&our car is in the shop - can we have a lift? :-) — Sleep Thieves (@sleepthieves) August 2, 2014

Don't worry though, the band managed to make it down to Tullamore and they were absolutely brilliant. If you missed them over the weekend then fear not, Sleep Thieves are playing at Electric Picnic and they are definitely one to check out. Keep an eye on their Twitter account also, you may be able to pick them up on the road to Laois and help delight some festival fans.
